Framing the Future: The Second Hundred Years of Education in Public Health

Join the USF College of Public Health at the Florida Public Health Association’s educational conference in Orlando. This year’s theme is “The Future is Now: Rethinking Public Health.”

Donna J. Petersen, ScD, MHS, CPH, senior associate vice president of USF Health and dean of the USF College of Public Health, will address “Framing the Future: The Second Hundred Years of Education in Public Health.”

The Framing the Future Task Force, formed in fall of 2011 will release its report in November 2014. This presentation will present the recommendations of the various expert panels that conducted the work of the Task Force and the themes that were interwoven through the discussions. Efforts to transform education are already underway across the country and examples will be provided. In addition, reflecting the innovation that is apparent in the entire effort, a preview of the “report” will also be shared. This presentation will be informative for everyone in public health, regardless of work setting and educational preparation.
